8 Best Prada bags

1. Cleo bag

The sleek silhouette and luxurious look of the Prada Cleo bag have made it one of the must-have handbags from the iconic Italian fashion house and one that you really need in your own wardrobe! The Cleo bag made its first appearance during the Prada Spring/Summer 2021 runway show, but the bag in fact draws inspiration from the beloved Prada hobo bags from the 1990s.

The Prada Cleo bag has a sumptuously curved shape, with an off-set, slanted base and looping leather shoulder strap to complete this striking shoulder bag. Crafted from brushed leather, the Cleo bag has a high-shine, gloss look, flawlessly finished with the silver Prada logo.

This bag has a surprisingly spacious interior, fitted with a handy patch pocket to help you remain organized. You can pick up the Cleo in 6 different colors, a satin crystal edition, patent leather, and a mini version so there is something to suit any style.

2. Galleria Tote Bag

The Prada Galleria is one of the brand’s most iconic bags that has been a staple in the leather goods collection since 2007. The structured and sophisticated bag takes its name from the Galleria shopping mall, where the very first Prada boutique was opened in 1913 by Mario Prada. The Galleria bag has a simple, boxy silhouette, which is intended to reflect the corridors of the mall, while the curved top handles take inspiration from the curved ceilings of Galleria Mall in Milan.

The tote-style bag is made from textured Saffiano leather and then decorated with either gold or silver hardware, including the iconic triangular Prada logo. We love the practicality of the Prada Galleria too – with two zip compartments, expandable snap sides, and slip and zip pockets!

The popularity of this bag has meant there is now a wide range of Galleria bags available, including three sizes, plenty of different colors, and a few different types of leather too, such as crocodile, ostrich, and python, alongside the classic Saffiano leather. The new collection of Galleria bags, decorated with fun floral appliques and glittering gold studs are just irresistible too!
